The Whole Truth!

At some point Americans are going to find out the truth and be very angry at those who've been concealing and/or altering the information. The latest scandal in Libya is absolutely appalling. Apparently those in charge watched the incident in real time from both a drone camera, and security cameras on the compound. With a base that's a thirty minute flight away, staffed with special forces, why wasn't a fighter scrambled, and special operations dispatched to the scene? If they launched a drone to take pictures, wouldn't a fighter have been more effective?

Now that's just one of many deceptions plaguing this nation. Why it has become acceptable to mislead the public to achieve your agenda, speaks volumes to the quality of that agenda. Let's examine some historical facts that have been misrepresented....

Did you know that 52 of the 55 signers of The Declaration of Independence were orthodox,
deeply committed Christians? The other three all believed in the Bible as the divine truth,
the God of scripture, and His personal intervention.

It is the same congress that formed the American Bible Society. Immediately
after creating the Declaration of Independence, the Continental Congress
voted to purchase and import 20,000 copies of scripture for the people of this nation

Patrick Henry, who is called the firebrand of the American Revolution,
is still remembered for his words, 'Give me liberty or give me death.
But in current textbooks the context of these words is deleted. Here
is what he said:

“An appeal to arms and the God of hosts is all that is left us. But we shall not fight our battle alone. There is a just God that presides over the destinies of nations. The battle sir, is not of the strong alone. Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death.”

These sentences have been erased from our textbooks

Was Patrick Henry a Christian? The following year, 1776, he wrote this 'It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religion, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For that reason alone, people of other faiths have been afforded freedom of worship here.

Consider these words that Thomas Jefferson wrote on the front of his well- worn Bible: 'I am a Christian, that is to say a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus. I have little doubt that our whole country will soon be rallied to the unity of our Creator and, I hope, to the pure doctrine of Jesus also.

Consider these words from George Washington, the Father of our Nation, in his farewell speech on September 19, 1796:

'It is impossible to govern the world without God and the Bible. Of all the dispositions and habits that lead to political prosperity, our religion and morality are the indispensable supporters. Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that our national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.'

Yet none of this is taught as history in the text books our children read. There are people who will attempt to change what is written in history when accounts don't serve their purpose. A great deal of what our children are taught isn't factually correct. Most of the accounts of the FDR administration is a liberal fairy tale, altered to conceal the huge failure he really was. Our history of today must be independently documented and saved for future generations so the truth be told.
